What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“I want feedback from the community! What builds are fun or overpowered? What characters should I add? What spells? For games like these (with many ways to play them), the players are essential in guiding the developer's path forward.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The plan is to only have a short Early Access-period, roughly 4-5 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version is planned to include more characters, items, item effects, side content, enemies, achievements, maps, and even game modes!”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“You can play as five distinct characters with various build options and unique items, making each playthrough unique. The main scenario will be playable from start to finish, offering hours of gameplay and encouraging multiple replays.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price might increase slightly, but this is intended to be a cheap, simple, and straight-up fun game, so it will never become pricey.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“I listen to all feedback, both on the Steam forums and through my Discord channel. I actively participate in conversations with players and greatly welcome all feedback, suggestions, general complaints, or praise.”

Detailed features: (so far, as more will be added)

  • Terrain matters: Fires spread rapidly on grass, water can be frozen, pits can be fallen into.

  • Wild skill combinations, allowing for completely unique playthroughs.

  • Unique items with randomized qualities, exponentially adding combos and variety to the game.

  • 30 Steam Achievements, rewarding players when starting new games.

  • Each playthrough is a mini-campaign, starting at a small village and ending in the halls of the emperor's castle. The path will vary, taking you through magical glades, towns, fortresses, or dwarven mines.

  • 7 different bosses.

  • Dozens of enemies, each with variable stats and traits.

  • Hand-pixeled coziness, details, and indie warmth!

  • A unique 30-minute OST.

  • Hours of fun at a cheap price!

All of these features will be expanded upon: more characters, spells, item abilities, areas, enemies, bosses, the soundtrack, etc. There will also be new playmodes! Stay tuned!
